3/11-3/12 7.2 The Pythagorean Theorem
2
Learning Target I can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find missing sides of right triangles
3
Simplify Radicals Practice
4
Pythagorean Theorem – In a right triangle, a² + b² = c² Where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.
5
A Pythagorean triple is a set of non zero whole numbers that satisfies the equation a² + b² = c² EX: 3, 4, 5 EX 2: 7, 24, 25
6
Do 1-6 Do 7-9
7
Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem: If the square of the length of one side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle.
8
Is this a right triangle?
9
If c² > a² + b², then the triangle is obtuse If c² < a² + b², then the triangle is acute
10
Do 14 - 19
11
DAY 2 Finish Lesson and do Worksheet with word problems
12
RECAP – Can you find missing lengths of right triangles? – Can you determine if a triangle is acute, obtuse, or right given the lengths?
